Congratulations Doug on your impressive achievement. What you have accomplished we all strive for. When I first came to UtterAccess years ago, you were one of several individuals that I was greatly impressed with. Soon, I'll be repeating this message when you get your 50,000th Post! Hats off to you.

Doug, from the MS Access newsgroups, to SmartAccess, to UA, your calm, clear approach to crafting solutions, and your quiet courtesy in responding to posts, have been a great help and encouragement to those of us asking questions, and a wonderful example to those of us answering questions. the world-wide Access community is a better place because you're part of it. thank you for the many times you've helped me over the years, directly and indirectly! :) tina
